Expect classic Khandaan energy as we talk about Vijay Anand’s noir-meets-masala filmmaking, Rakhi and Dharam’s scorching chemistry, Shatrughan Sinha’s flying kicks, rogue Italians, solar-power science madness, and the joy of rediscovering an icon's work. It’s heartfelt, funny, nostalgic, and a reminder of why Dharmendra remains one of Hindi cinema’s most beloved stars.
